Musical
Spots
1.
Make
enough shapes of various colors for each child in the class. They should be large enough for a child to
stand on.
2.
At
circle time talk about the shapes and colors with the children.
3.
Give
one shape to each child. Ask the
children to place their shapes in a circle on the floor. This circle should be large enough for the
children to walk in a circle without touching the next child. Ask the children to stand on their shapes.
4.
Explain
that this game is played like musical chairs.
When the music starts the children begin to walk outside the circle of
shapes. When the music stops the
children will step on the shape that is closest to them. Only one child may stand on a shape. There is one less shape than children each
time the game is played.
5.
The
child who does not have a shape to stand on is asked to sit down and hold the
shape that is taken away.
6.
The
game continues with a shape being removed each time the music stops.
More – The game can be played with
shapes of animals, transportation
vehicles or with vinyl placemats.
